At Fraser Engines, every remanufactured engine is updated to meet or exceed the latest OEM Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). That means recurring factory-identified issues are corrected before your engine ever leaves our facility—ensuring greater reliability, performance, and longevity.
Our process is far more than a simple rebuild. Every engine goes through a rigorous, multi-stage remanufacturing procedure that includes:
Complete Disassembly – Engine is fully torn down to the bare block for precise inspection.
Thorough Cleaning – Components are cleaned with high-pressure and chemical treatments to remove all oil, carbon, and debris.
Precision Inspection – Blocks, heads, crankshafts, rods, and other critical parts are magnafluxed, measured, and checked against OEM tolerances.
Block & Head Machining – Surfaces are decked, honed, and align-bored to exact factory specifications.
Component Replacement – Worn or out-of-tolerance parts are replaced with new OEM-quality or upgraded components (bearings, pistons, rings, lifters, gaskets, seals, oil pump, timing components, etc.).
TSB Updates Applied – Design improvements and manufacturer fixes are incorporated, eliminating known factory issues.
Precision Assembly – Engines are reassembled in a controlled environment, with exact torque specifications and clearances.
Testing & Quality Control – Each engine undergoes pressure testing, oil flow checks, and strict final inspections to ensure flawless performance.
✅ Backed by Fraser’s industry-leading warranty
✅ Built to OEM specifications or better
✅ Trusted by shops and customers nationwide

When it’s time to replace your 3.8L V6, you have options. Here’s why choosing a Fraser remanufactured 3.8L is the smartest move:
A rebuilt engine only fixes what failed. A Fraser remanufactured 3.8L gets a complete tear-down, precision machining, and controlled reassembly. Every critical wear component is replaced with new or upgraded parts — pistons, rings, bearings, seals, gaskets, oil pump, and timing set — for like-new reliability.
The 3.8L OHV V6 is proven but has common pain points on higher-mileage units:
Oil consumption / valve stem seal or ring wear
Lifter/valvetrain tick and misfires
Intake manifold and valve cover gasket leaks
Occasional head gasket or cooling-system related failures
We integrate factory updates and best-practice fixes during remanufacturing so these issues are addressed before your engine ships.
Every Fraser 3.8L is remanufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards:
Complete hot-tank & pressure cleaning
Magnaflux crack inspection of critical components
Precision block boring & honing to exact tolerances
Cylinder head resurfacing, valve/guide/seat work
Crankshaft regrinding & dynamic balancing
New pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets, and timing components
Final oil pressure, compression, and leak-down testing
Result: a remanfactured 3.8L that performs like new — or better.
Most Fraser engines include a 4-Year / Unlimited Mileage warranty (coverage may vary by unit). Want no-hassle, maximum protection? Add Fraser No-Fault coverage with one-time replacement regardless of cause (3-, 4-, or 5-year options available; labor reimbursements per program terms).
A remanufactured 3.8L costs far less than a new crate engine while delivering outstanding reliability. Remanufacturing also reduces waste, making it a smart, eco-friendly choice.
Engine Type: 60° OHV V6, cast-iron block with aluminum heads
Displacement: 3.8 liters (231 cubic inches)
Horsepower: ~197–215 HP (application/year dependent)
Torque: ~230–245 lb-ft, tuned for low-to-midrange pull
Fuel System: Sequential multi-port fuel injection

A remanufactured engine is built with precision-machined surfaces, new piston rings, bearings, gaskets, seals, and updated components. The break-in process allows these components to properly seat and ensures long-term reliability. Failure to follow break-in procedures can cause:
Excessive oil consumption
Premature wear or scuffing
Overheating issues
Warranty denial for improper installation or neglect
Prime the Oil System – Before starting, pre-fill the oil filter and crank the engine without spark/fuel to build oil pressure.
Check Fluids – Fill with manufacturer-recommended oil (typically conventional, not synthetic, for break-in) and coolant.
First Start – Start the engine and immediately bring RPM to 1,500–2,000 for the first 15–20 minutes. This allows proper camshaft and lifter break-in while ensuring good oil splash.
Monitor Gauges – Watch oil pressure, coolant temperature, and listen for abnormal noises.
Inspect for Leaks – Shut down and check for oil, coolant, or fuel leaks before proceeding.
Avoid High RPM & Heavy Loads – Keep RPM under 3,500 and avoid towing, hauling, or aggressive driving.
Vary Engine Speed – Do not use cruise control; vary speeds to help piston rings seat properly.
Short Trips vs. Long Trips – Mix city and highway driving, but avoid extended idling or long highway trips at constant RPM.
Oil Change at 500 Miles – Drain the break-in oil, replace filter, and refill with fresh conventional oil. This removes metal particles from the seating process.
Continue varying engine speed.
Light to moderate loads are acceptable, but no full-throttle accelerations.
At 1,000 miles, perform a second oil and filter change.
Switch to high-quality synthetic or synthetic-blend oil if desired.
Normal driving, towing, and hauling can resume.
Maintain regular oil changes every 3,000–5,000 miles (conventional) or 5,000–7,500 miles (synthetic), or as recommended by Fraser Engines.
Always use premium filters (Fram Ultra, Wix, Mopar, Motorcraft, AC Delco, etc.).
Maintain proper cooling system function – replace thermostat, water pump, and radiator hoses during engine install.
Replace spark plugs, wires, and sensors if worn.
Use only manufacturer-approved coolant and oil specifications.
